This is far from exhaustive, but just to note that programs from BBC Radio Leeds also seem to be available in 320k AAC_LC. More testing is required.

I'll put up a GitHub repo soon and report back when I've made a bit more progress. At the moment the script is barely even a proof-of-concept - it can fetch playlists to verify that the 320k audio is available, and return the URL of the DASH manifest file. The next step is to parse those manifest files in order to get the URLs to the parts of the media for download, before combining them into one MP4/M4A.
